iTools is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than iTunes.
Software that does what I want it to do. Amazing.
The way I see it is like this Sheras - the old stuff spanning the late 70's to mid 90's was very much centered on making anime movies - or if it was a series, it was typically just a 4 episode run or something. Some where in the late 90's early 2000's pretty much everything shifted to a tv format and everything all of a sudden went to 24, 48 or even more episodes and I really lost interest. Now yes, there were long running series earlier on, i.e. Robotech, Macross, etc, but the style of everything was different.
The stuff I really enjoyed were basically just movies that were animated because due to technology and budget limitations they just weren't feasible as a live action venture. Prime examples are Akira, Venus Wars, VHD, pretty much most of what Beelze and I have discussed.
Anime now is nothing but big tits, short skirts and angry highschool kids. Yes, that's a bit broad and I may be narrow minded here, but that's how I see it and that's why I don't like it.... hence the two distinctly different eras of anime (in my opinion).
Got it?
I'm old and stuck in my ways
I don't need any recommendations unless you can come up with some movies (not episodic stuff) that fit the bill. I've got so much shit on my plate that I don't really need a pending anime collection as well that I'll never get to
And I've seen most of Miyazaki's stuff - those are a little too "Disney" for me. Mononoke I think was his best... and darkest.
Grilled cheese sandwiches have been consumed.
I'm not sure if Adult Swim still shows anime, it might. Though most of the series that I mentioned before were shown on AS. You should look some of those up too. Because they're not like the usual, as you put it "love stories and high school romance shit".
That's good - because the last time I tried something on Netflix that looked decent it turned out to be nothing but a fan service panty shot/upskirt camera angled zombie killing-high school fap fest. I can't even remember what it was called, but it was terribad.
And I've got nothing against nudity or sex for the record, I just prefer "real" women and not cartoon chicks
Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. That was super depressing. Another one that's very similar is Barefoot Gen. I didn't know anything about it (it was on the Streamline Reel, so I figured I needed to grab it), and it turned out to be an eye witness account to the H-bomb and it was just a total downer.

Fine generate me a list. Won't be able to watch very often though. I will be busy as hell this semester.
And it isn't that bad of series, but it does have that aspect. There have been a lot of animes that I will be watching that are good and just have panty shots and such out of nowhere.
